Our actual results may differ materially from those projected or contemplated by our forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including the risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On November 8, 2017, Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (“Sabra” or the “Company”) entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “Genesis Exodus MOU”) with Genesis Healthcare, Inc. (“Genesis”). The Company had previously entered into memoranda of understanding with Genesis to market for sale 35 skilled nursing facilities leased to Genesis (the “MOU Disposition Facilities”), four of which have already been sold. The Genesis Exodus MOU relates to the remaining 43 facilities leased to Genesis (the “Genesis Exodus Facilities”).
The Genesis Exodus MOU allows Sabra to restructure existing master leases or to create new master leases at market terms to increase the marketability of the Genesis Exodus Facilities to potential buyers. Among other things, the Genesis Exodus MOU provides that:
•Genesis may defer a majority of its November 2017 through April 2018 rent payments for up to one month from the applicable monthly due date.
•Effective January 1, 2018, the Genesis annual rent obligations will be reduced by $19.0 million. The ongoing rental obligation for the Genesis Exodus Facilities is estimated to be approximately $47 million per year after giving effect to this reduction and the sale of the MOU Disposition Facilities, but before giving effect to the sale of any of the Genesis Exodus Facilities.
•In the event that rent must be further reduced to facilitate a sale, the difference between this reduced rent and the portion of the revised aggregate rent (after giving effect to the $19.0 million rent reduction) allocated to the sold facilities will be an ongoing monthly obligation paid by Genesis to the Company for an additional 4.286 years from the date of sale. The Company estimates that this arrangement will result in up to $7.0 million of remaining payments per year from Genesis over this 4.286 year period, assuming all the Genesis Exodus Facilities are sold at an aggregate value of between $425 and $475 million.
•Genesis will be further incentivized to expedite asset sales based on meeting certain process milestones that, if not met, will extend the 4.286 year period of ongoing payments from Genesis.
•Sabra has complete flexibility to retain any or all of the Genesis Exodus Facilities at its discretion under new long-term leases.
The foregoing description of the Genesis Exodus MOU does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Genesis Exodus MOU, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
The Company does not expect the transactions contemplated by the Genesis Exodus MOU to impact the Company’s previously issued full year guidance for 2017 or 2018.
